Harvey says:
I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I' m not going to sue somebody for singing a Ho-Ho-Ho song in December.
I don't agree with Darwin, but I didn't go out and hire a lawyer when my high school teacher taught his theory of evolution.
Life, liberty or your pursuit of happiness will not be endangered because someone says a 30-second prayer before a
football game.
So what's the big deal? It's not like somebody is up there reading the entire book of Acts. They're
just talking to a God they believe in and asking him to grant safety to the players on the field and the fans going home from
the game.
"But it's a Christian prayer," some will argue.
Yes, and this is the United States of America, a country founded on Christian principles. According
to our very own phone book, Christian churches outnumber all others better than 200-to-1. So what would you expect-somebody
chanting Hare Krishna?
If I went to a football game in Jerusalem, I would expect to
hear a Jewish prayer.
